Itzhak,

 

Well, that depends upon which window (main application or Individual's
information) where you want the specialty displays.

 

If you want to change the main application window's data display, try the
following:

1.      Right click on any of the five default field labels (Born, Chr,
Died, Buried, or DthCau).
2.      From the Customize dialog, click on the three dot icon [,,,] to open
the Field Names to Display dialog.
3.      Scroll through the list and select a field name to replace the field
label you selected to replace.
4.      When finished, click Close.

 

Note that this change is only on the main application window and does not
change the information shown in the Individual's Information dialog. Also
note that from the Customize dialog you can return to the default field list
([Default] button) along with saving a specific rename of the main
application window data (the Save and Load buttons on the Customize dialog).

 

Is this change to the information display on the main application window
what you wanted?

Dear all,

I posted the message below four years ago.

Legacy v. 9 was released recently but it does nor appear to have addressed
my concerns below, or am I wrong?

I am impressed with Legacy but have not made it my primary genealogy
program.

I use Legacy 7.5 Deluxe Edition,

Its basic data entry (Individual's Information) window seems to be hardwired
to four initial events -- born, christened, died and buried. Other events
have to be selected from a menu.  Hardly anybody in my database was
baptized, and even their circumcision dates are not particularly important
to me.  Similarly, burial data is not that important to me.  On the other
hand, residence and occupation data are important to me. How do I replace
"christened" and "buried" in that window with other events?

The Family window started with the same four event plus "cause of death" and
I replaced three of the events in it.  This deals with display but not with
data entry.
